Lactobacillus acidophilus is known to have an inhibitory activity on growth of Helicobacter pylori and this activity has been attributed to lactic acid and antibacterial agents produced by Lactobacillus. Since every Lactobacilli produces lactic acid, an another factor must exist for L. acidophilus to inhibit H. pylori growth. In this work, the inhibitory activity of L. acidophilus on H. pylori adherence was studied. An immunoabsorbent assay using TLC plate was developed and used for screening the inhibitory activity of various Lactobacilli on H. pylori adherence. Glycolipid, the attachment site for H. pylori, was isolated from blood type O red blood cells and spotted on a TLC plate. The H. pylori adherence increased linearly with increasing amounts of glycolipid spotted on the TLC plate. Various L. acidophilus strains, but not L. casei, appeared to inhibit H. pylori adherence to glycolipid, and the adherence decreased linearly as the concentration of the Lactobacillus increased. The results show that the inhibitory activity of L. acidophilus on H. pylori adherence is an another factor for L. acidophilus to inhibit H. pylori growth.

Biosurfactants have versatile properties and potential industrial applications. A new producer, B. subtilis TU2, was isolated from the underground oil-extraction wastewater of Shengli Oilfield, China. Preliminary flask culture showed that the titer of biosurfactant obtained from the broth of TU2 was ~1.5 g/l at 48 h (718 mg/l after purification), with a reduced surface tension of 32.5 mN/m. The critical micelle concentration was measured as 50 mg/l and the surface tension maintained stability in solution with 50 g/l NaCl and 16 g/l $CaCl_2$ after 5 days of incubation at $70^{\circ}C$. FT-IR spectra exhibited the structure information of both glycolipid and lipopeptide. MALDI-TOF-MS analyses confirmed that the biosurfactant produced by B. subtilis TU2 was a blend of glycolipid and lipopeptide, including rhamnolipid, surfactin, and fengycin. The blended biosurfactant showed 86% of oil-washing efficiency and fine emulsification activity on crude oil, suggesting its potential application in enhanced oil recovery.

진핵세포내 막성세포소기관들은 각각 고유한 세포의 중요한 기능들을 담당하고 있다. 이들 기관에 분포하는 단백질들은 세포질에서 발현된 후, 정교한 조절에 의해서 다양한 세포내 소기관으로 운송된다. 따라서, 세포내에 존재하는 막성세포소기관의 마커를 개발하고, 이들의 타기팅 기전을 알아내는 것은 세포 생리 및 병리학적 기전 연구에 중요한 도구가 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 보고된 당지질-결합 펩타이드들과 이들의 변형을 통한 세포내 타겟팅을 분석하였다. 그 결과 이러한 당지질-결합 펩타이드들은 미토콘드리아, 원형질막, 골지체로 위치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이러한 펩타이드가 세포내 기관을 마커로 이용될 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 원형질막에 타기팅하는 펩타이드 마커의 경우는, 정전기적인 상호작용에 의해 원형질막에 선택적으로 타기팅됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과를 통해 당지질-결합 펩타이드들이 다양한 세포내 운송과 관련한 연구에 세포소기관의 위치 및 모양을 분석 할 수 있는 마커로 이용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

These studies were undertaken to investigate changes of neutral lipid content and fatty acid composition were determined. Also accumulation process of monoglyceride, diglyceride and triglyceride content, and fatty acid composition were investigated during the development. The results were summarized as follows ; Changes of lipid during development sesame seeds, glycolipid contents which showed the highest in the early ripening stage and after that rapidly decreased, and phospholipid contents showed a similar pattern as glycolipid occurred. In contrast, the content of neutral lipid was rapidly increased by 29.21% 10 days after flowering(DAF), and showed the highest value by 91.84% at 40th day after flower. The neutral lipid, triglyceride content was rapidly increased as the seeds developed, and consisted of over 60% of the neutral lipid since 30 DAF. In the changes of neutral lipid, phospholipid and glycolipid, stearic acid and palmitic acid decreased during the seed ripening. However, oleic acid and linoleic acid increased during the same periods. Linolenic acid, which showed relatively higher value in the early ripening stage, but rapidly decreased as much as 1% at the later ripening stage.

A glycolipid type of biosurfactants was obtained from a strain which had been isolated from soil. The cell was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa from taxonomic characteristics and was designated as YPJ80. Thin layer chromatography and deoxyhexose detection tests were done to verify the type of biosurfactant. Critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the surfactant was observed to be 50 ppm and the minimum surface tension was 30.1 mN/m. As an emulsifier, YPJ80 biosurfactant was superior to emulsan in the emulsification of crude Arabian light oil.

For myelination, Schwann cells and neuron cells from dorsal root ganglion (DRG) of rat embryos (E16) were cultured in vitro system. The purified DRG cells with anti-mitotic agents and purified Schwann cells were cocultured and then accomplished myelination processing. Treatment of M. leprae-specific phenolic glycolipid-1 (PGL-1) into this coculture system was performed and then accomplished demyelination. Therefore, we identified demyelination processing using antibody of myelin basic protein (MBP).

Rescently we are interested in the biosurfactant. Biosurfactant have a low toxcity and easily biodegradable compound. Pseudomonas sp. 13 was isolated from soil. This microorganism produced biosurfactant that consists of glycolipid R-1 and R-2. A time course study of fermentation indicated that the appearance of glycolipid in the fermentation broth the commencement of the stationary phase with the respect to biomass. The effect of variation of the media components such as amount of glucose, nitrogen, phosphate and metal ions has been investigated. The following values found to be optimum for biosurfactant production (glucose, $20g/{\ell}$; carbon to nitrogen ratio, 40; carbon to phosphate, 18; $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;20mg/{\ell}$).

Organochlorine pesticide residues continue to remain as a major environmental threat worldwide. Lindane is an organochlorine pesticide widely used as an acaricide in medicine and agriculture. In the present study, a new lindane-degrading yeast strain, Pseudozyma VITJzN01, was identified as a copious producer of glycolipid biosurfactant. The glycolipid structure and type were elucidated by FTIR, NMR spectroscopy, and GC-MS analysis. The surface activity and stability of the glycolipid was analyzed. The glycolipids, characterized as mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs), exhibited excellent surface active properties and the surface tension of water was reduced to 29 mN/m. The glycolipid was stable over a wide range of pH, temperature, and salinity, showing a very low CMC of 25 mg/l. Bio-microemulsion of olive oil-in-water (O/W) was prepared using the purified biosurfactant without addition of any synthetic cosurfactants, for lindane solubilization and enhanced degradation assay in liquid and soil slurry. The O/W bio-microemulsions enhanced the solubility of lindane up to 40-folds. Degradation of lindane (700 mg/l) by VITJzN01 in liquid medium amended with bio-microemulsions was found to be enhanced by 36% in 2 days, compared with degradation in 12 days in the absence of bio-microemulsions. Lindane-spiked soil slurry incubated with bio-microemulsions also showed 20-40% enhanced degradation compared with the treatment with glycolipids or yeast alone. This is the first report on lindane degradation by Pseudozyma sp., and application of bio-microemulsions for enhanced lindane degradation. MEL-stabilized bio-microemulsions can serve as a potential tool for enhanced remediation of diverse lindane-contaminated environments.

Lipid and fatty acid compositions of the bound lipids in Panax quinquefolium (Korea, Japan and China), Panax quinquefolium (America, Canada) and Panax notoginseng (China) were studied by means of silicic acid column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography. The could lipid contents in various ginsengs were 0.29 to 0.48%, in which neutral lipid fractions were 63.6 to 67.3%, glycolipid fractions 21.9 to 25.7% and phospholipid fractions 7.7 to 12.4%. The content compositions of neutral lipid fractions were lower and those of glycolipid and phospholipid fractions were higher in the bound lipids than in the free lipids from the various ginseng. The major components were fatty acids, diglycerides and free sterols in neutral lipid fractions, monogalactosyl diglyceride, sterol glucoside and esterified steryl g1ycoside in glycolipid fractions and phosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidyl ethanolamine and phosphatidic acid in phosphoipid fractions. Seventeen fatty acids were analyzed in the four bound lipid fractions from the various ginsengs and main fatty acids were linoleic acid, palmitic acid and oleic acid. Total saturated fatty acid and palmitic acid contents were higher and total unsaturated fatty acid and linoleic acid contents lower in the total bound lipids than in the total free lipids from the various ginsengs.
